MAINTENANCE:

This R100C has been engineered and built to require
minimum maintenance. But like any machine, it does
require some care to keep it in optimum working condi-
tion. Careful attention to these maintenance instructions
will give you maximum operating performance and life
expectancy of the machine.
CAUTION: Disconnect the power cord from the outlet
before doing any clean up or maintenance on the ma-
chine
1. Keep the machine clean. Do not allow dust to accu-
mulate on external surfaces or near any moving parts.
2. After every job, wipe down the surface of the machine
with a clean damp cloth.
3. Inspect cord for damage. Do not use machine with a
damaged cord.
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Use only chemicals safe for extractors
Adhere to the appropriate mix ratios for all chemicals
For optimal performance, it is suggested that the
operator flush the system after every job or at the end
of the day.
Pump seals and valves may need to be replaced at the
1000 hour mark if a loss in pressure is noted
Daily:
1. Always keep the machine clean inside and out.
2. Pour 2 gallons of clean hot water in the solution
tank. Turn the pump on and flush the entire system
through the wand nozzles for about a minute to pre-
vent alkaline build-up.
3. Remove dirt and lint build-up inside the filter screen
in the recovery tank. Lint should be cleaned off so
that air flow is not impeded.
4. Check the solution tank strainer in the solution tank.
If lint has accumulated in the screen, remove and
rinse it in clear running water.
Weekly:
Check and clean solution filter
Check for obstructions in vacuum pathways
Quarterly:
Check pump, plumbing and fittings for leaks
Check power cords and hoses for tears
